Today's News

Vancouver, BC, January 20, 2016--(T-Net)--Vecima Networks Inc. (VCM.TO), a designer and manufacturer of technology in the broadband equipment market, announced today that the Company has received orders totaling USD$11.0 million (approximately CDN$16 million) for its Digital Video Access Platform (DVAP) since September 2015.

In September 2014, Vecima announced signing a take or pay contract valued at USD$19 million for the platform. These bookings will essentially complete the full commitment under that contract.

The majority of the recent orders are expected to ship in the second half of the Company's 2016 fiscal year.

"Our fiscal 2016 is progressing well and these orders give us further confidence in the strength of the remainder of the year," stated Sumit Kumar, President and CEO.

Vecima's DVAP is required to provide critical two way communications to an extensive network of video subscriber devices. The solution provides cable operators with appreciable power savings (over 60%) and a form factor that is substantially smaller than previous solutions (less than 10% of the footprint), according to the company.
